[07:25:21] <FatPhil> "Omar Hurricane" is a fucking awesome name.
[07:29:49] <janrinok> I recall something about a fusion reactor in S Korea (?) running at the correct temperature for around 30 secs (which is much longer than had been achieved up until them)
[07:31:31] <FatPhil> that was a couple of months ago, I think
[07:31:51] <FatPhil> it's a 10-day old story, but if it's not been covered, at least it's tech
[07:31:57] <janrinok> no, there was another within the last week or two, cannot say exactly when
[07:32:07] <FatPhil> oooh, missed that
[07:32:12] <janrinok> submit it, we can sort it out
[07:32:14] <FatPhil> I was off the internet most of the holidat

[07:39:51] <FatPhil> yup, I remember that one

[12:39:45] <janrinok> cosurgi is also having problems accessing the mail server... not sure what the problem is
[12:49:36] <inz> Blame linode
[13:43:19] <FatPhil> linode servers ~ deliver snores
[13:43:58] <FatPhil> (curiously, also ... = i.e. DNS resolver)
[15:18:11] * cosurgi confirms the problems.

[15:25:49] <Runaway1956> Huh - OK. I'm failing to connect here.
[15:26:52] * janrinok salutes as the waters wash around his feet....
[15:27:21] <Runaway1956> 21 gun salute . . . READY
[15:27:34] <janrinok> do it quick before the powder gets wet
[15:28:00] <FatPhil> linux users could do a 21 gnu salute instead
[15:28:15] <FatPhil> I've heard wilde ideas
[15:28:38] <janrinok> lol
[15:28:53] <janrinok> that was a beast of a joke
[15:30:23] <janrinok> all my pages are beginning to time out now
[15:31:13] <janrinok> SITE NEWS: WE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH OUR HARDWARE - MECHANICJAY IS AWARE, BUT IT SEEMS THAT WE MAY SOON ALL HAVE PROBLEMS CONNECTING TO THE SITE
[15:31:42] <janrinok> linodes seem to be OK, it looks like it is one of our boxes that is misbehaving
[15:32:19] <janrinok> yeah, I know they are the same thing, but it looks as though it is our problem not theirs
[15:33:38] <FatPhil> maybe set the /topic?
[15:34:27] <janrinok> if I knew how to I would
[15:34:39] <Runaway1956> I told them not to aim at the captain when they fired
[15:39:02] <FatPhil> /topic #soylent this is the new topic
[15:39:20] <FatPhil> anyone on android?
[15:39:33] <janrinok> Found 1 problem with bind not loading properly - mj is working on that for the moment
[15:40:21] <FatPhil> is there a plugin for the browser that lets you examine the requests to detect slow ones? Like "web developer" tools on desktop browsers.
[15:40:43] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - Edward Snowden Was Granted Russian Citizenship - https://sylnt.us
[15:42:19] <janrinok> I've got no access to the main site now - seems like Bender is seeing something but I am not
[15:47:27] <janrinok> mj has fixed the bind problem - the site might becoming back online gradually. It can take a while for the data to propagate through the network
[15:48:00] <janrinok> Runaway1956, you can unload the cannons if you see the site come back online
[15:48:41] <Runaway1956> You gotta be kidding - if I tell them to unload the cannons without firing them, we'll have a mutiny on our hands
[15:48:47] <janrinok> I've been trying to fix a problem in some of my own software which I now realise wasn't a problem at my end at all.
[15:49:04] <janrinok> Runaway1956, well point them in a safe direction!
[15:49:18] <Runaway1956> They are - pointed at the deck house.
[15:49:45] <janrinok> and if you start singing anything from Mary Poppins you will get a ban!
[15:50:15] <Runaway1956> What about Wierd Al Wankovich?
[15:56:08] <Runaway1956> 256 GB USB drive being formatted for use with DD-WRT router - started it formatting about 12 hours ago - on inode table 1429 of 1773
[15:56:47] <Runaway1956> when the jffs partition is finally finished, I need to make swap and opt partitions . . .
[15:57:26] <Runaway1956> I have no idea why EXT2 partition should be so freaking slow
[16:02:55] <FatPhil> site's fine for me
[16:06:59] <FatPhil> Runaway1956: what does ``top'' say? is the kernel waiting? (presumably for slow USB)
[16:08:41] <Runaway1956> Yeah, it's mostly sleeping fatphil
[16:09:09] <Runaway1956> Keerist on a crutch - I loaded SN on my android phone
[16:09:14] <Runaway1956> it ain't pretty
[16:10:23] <Runaway1956> better sideways, at least I can read . . .
[16:10:25] <FatPhil> overlapping areas covering the side panels?
[16:13:02] <Runaway1956> Well, I pinched it bigger, and scrolled to the actual Snowden story . . . I guess it's usable, but looks like hammered dog shite to a guy who only does desktop computers with big screens
[16:13:35] <Runaway1956> I won't be making a habit of posting from an android phone.
[16:13:57] <Runaway1956> There are probably settings to take care of all that, but I'll have to dig to find them
[16:17:12] <Runaway1956> Going back to the default page, what I get, is the whole page, side panels and the story list, everything in extra-tiny print
